ProfessorJulia Bryant
Professor
Faculty of Science
RESEARCH INTERESTs
Her research interests are in both galaxy evolution and astrophotonics:
- How gas accretion drives angular monmentum and star formation in galaxies.
- The impact of environment in the evolution of galaxies.
- Astrophotonics: developing astrophotonic devices for future astronomical instruments, in both the optical and infrared (e.g. imaging fibre bundles calledhexabundles).
- Unified models of active galaxies: diagnostics of starburst and AGN processes using optical and infrared spectroscopy.
Her research aligns with the Faculty of Science Research Strengths - Understanding the Universe, Earth and Space Exploration and Technologies.
